💪 Rancho RS5118 RS5000 Series Shock: Unleashing Superior Performance and Durability Review

These are great shock absorbers and should outlive the truck I fitted them on! However, be aware. One of the units was clearly used, abused, or both before I received it.

After I swapped them out, the ride was much firmer, less bobbing, and an overall better feel. Now all I have to do is figure out how to keep the rubber boot on the rod on the nearby exhaust pipe from melting. I've learned my…

Old Ranch (replaced) 142,000 miles on 4WD S-10 (low off-road light) Installed upside down (tire room) and still runs better. Fixed the oversized tire vibration issue, so there was no reason to doubt the correct up or down direction in the fine print. NEVER TRUST ANY CAR MECHANIC, even a good one.
